How to Purchase Fresh Herbs

Look for bright-colored herbs without any sign of wilting or browning. Flowering herbs should not already have flowers on them. For best results, use fresh herbs as soon as possible after purchase.

How to Wash Fresh Herbs

Always wash fresh herbs before use. Rinse small bunches under cold running water and blot dry. When you need to clean a large amount of herbs, fill a large bowl or clean sink with cold water and swish the herbs around to remove any dirt. Remove the herbs from the water and dry in a salad spinner or gently blot dry.
